Grill or Blacken the Salmon
Remove the salmon from the marinade and discard the marinade. If grilling, place the salmon skin-side down on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. If blackening in a skillet, add a bit of oil and sear the salmon for 3-4 minutes per side.

Garnish
Once cooked, remove the salmon from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
